Life cycle cost analysis
Industry studies have shown that flooring materials with a higher initial cost do not necessarily translate to a higher cost in the long run. In fact, findings indicate flooring materials with a higher initial cost will perform more cost effectively over many years.
For example, while rubber flooring may cost more initially, the cost of maintaining it is lower. And because it’s extremely durable, it lasts a very long time. So, when examining long-term costs, it is important to consider the total cost of ownership. With the right information, you can help customers control costs – not just on the initial project, but also in the long run.
